PLACEMENT
One subwoofer will have a good effect on your audio system, however, the use of two subwoofers is recommended to obtain more effect.
If using one subwoofer, it is recommended to place it on the outside of either the right or the left front speaker. (See fig. A .) If using two subwoofers, it is recommended to place them on the outside of each front speaker. (See fig.
B .) The placement shown in fig.
C is also possible, however, if the subwoofer system is placed directly facing the wall, the bass effect may lessen because the sound from it and the sound reflected by the wall may cancel out each other. To prevent this from happening, face the subwoofer system at an angle as in fig.
A or B .
Note
There may be a case that you cannot obtain enough superbass sounds from the subwoofer when listening in the center of the room. This is because “standing waves” have been developed between two parallel walls and they cancel the bass sounds.
In such a case, face the subwoofer obliquely to the wall. It also may be necessary to break up the parallel surfaces by placing bookshelves etc. along the walls.
Use the non-skid pads
Put the provided non-skid pads at the four corners on the bottom of the subwoofer to prevent the subwoofer from moving by vibrations etc.

4
Play a source containing bass signal and adjust the amplifier’s volume control to the desired listening level.
5
Set the HIGH CUT switch to the LOW or HIGH position.
This subwoofer is designed so that the optimum tone balance between the subwoofer and the front speakers is obtained when this switch is set to the
LOW position. The tone balance may change, however, depending on the room size, the distance from the subwoofer to the front speakers, and so on.
If necessary, switch it to the HIGH position.
6
Rotate the VOLUME control gradually to adjust the volume balance between the subwoofer and the other speakers.
* Normally, set the control to the level where you can obtain a little more bass effect than when the subwoofer is not used. If the desired response cannot be obtained, adjust the HIGH CUT switch and the
VOLUME control again.
Notes
• Once the volume balance between the subwoofer and the front speakers is adjusted, you can adjust the volume of your whole sound system by using the amplifier’s volume control.
However, if you change the front speakers to others, you must make this adjustment again.

ADVANCED YAMAHA ACTIVE SERVO TECHNOLOGY II
In 1988, Yamaha brought to the marketplace speaker systems utilizing YST (Yamaha Active Servo Technology) to give powerful, high quality bass reproduction. This technique uses a direct connection between the amplifier and speaker, allowing accurate signal transmission and precise speaker control.
As this technology uses speaker units controlled by the negative impedance drive of the amplifier and resonance generated between the speaker cabinet volume and port, it creates more resonant energy (the “air woofer” concept) than the standard bass reflex method. This allows for bass reproduction from much smaller cabinets than was previously possible.
Yamaha’s newly developed Advanced YST II adds many refinements to Yamaha Active Servo Technology, allowing better control of the forces driving the amplifier and speaker. From the amplifier’s point of view, the speaker impedance changes depending on the sound frequency. Yamaha developed a new circuit design combining negative-impedance and constant-current drives, which provides a more stable performance and clear bass reproduction without any murkiness.
